Painting the American Goldfinch
There is a local NPR station that has a weekly program, Bird News, with Mark Faherty of Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary. This week I learned that the American Goldfinch feeds its young only seed.  This accounts for their frequency at the feeders throughout the summer.  Many of our birds leave the feeders in search of insects once they have fledglings.
